Episode 89: Know Your Member (of the chord)
***NOTICE: On October 29, 2008, the original “Know Your Member” print-out was updated. The update comes courtesy of our friend Ron in California- 2008 “Most Loyal Viewer Award” recipient. He added parts for C, B-flat, and E-flat instruments to join in the exercise. Thus, it’s perfect for almost any ensemble…teachers/conductors take note. Thanks Ron!)***
Here’s a great game to play to learn to HEAR better!
I stole the idea from Brad Edwards. Shhhhh! (I also stole some slide cream from him.) Brad’s wonderful web presence can be felt most strongly here: www.bonezone.org
It’s designed for 3 players and will involve chord identification. Doing this for a while with friends/students/teachers will REALLY open your ears. Enjoy…..
